Pitchfest

What is Pitchfest?
Pitchfest is an official part of the 2024 Social Impact in the Regions Program held on day one of the conference (4 September).

We aren’t hung up on legal structure, you can participate in Pitchfest as a social enterprise, not for profit, purpose led business or community based committee – the key criteria is that you are creating social impact in your regional community – and of course that you have something to pitch.

How will #SIITR24 Pitchfest run?

1. Register to pitch on or before 11am on 9 August via this link

2. Successful semi-finalists will be contacted in the afternoon of 9th August to pitch online on Tuesday 13th August (you will be provided with a pitch pack)

3. FIVE successful finalists will be given a free ticket to Social Impact in the Regions 2024 and invited to pitch on Wednesday 4 September

4. A total of six finalists (including one from the host community, Kempsey NSW) will pitch to a panel at the conference and go into the running for the StartSomeGood prize pack
